Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 167 words
A process for producing an aromatic sulfonyl chloride having a quinonediazido group, represented by the following general formula (II): wherein R, which may be the same or different, is a monovalent substituent selected from halogen atoms, nitro groups, and alkyl groups having from 1 to 5 carbon atoms; Ar is an aromatic organic group having a quinonediazide structure which is substituted by at least one oxy anion and at least one diazonium cation; i is an integer of from 0 to 5; and j is an integer of from 1 to 5, from a sulfonic acid or a salt thereof represented by the following general formula (I): wherein R, Ar, i and j are as defined above; and M is a hydrogen atom, a mono-, di- or trivalent metal, or an organic amino cation, characterised in that the sulfonic acid or salt thereof represented by the formula (II) is reacted with phosgene in the presence of a catalyst and in the presence or absence of a solvent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 167 words
A process for producing an aromatic sulfonyl chloride having a quinonediazido group, represented by the following general formula (II): wherein R, which may be the same or different, is a monovalent substituent selected from halogen atoms, nitro groups, and alkyl groups having from 1 to 5 carbon atoms; Ar is an aromatic organic group having a quinonediazide structure which is substituted by at least one oxy anion and at least one diazonium cation; i is an integer of from 0 to 5; and j is an integer of from 1 to 5, from a sulfonic acid or a salt thereof represented by the following general formula (I): wherein R, Ar, i and j are as defined above; and M is a hydrogen atom, a mono-, di- or trivalent metal, or an organic amino cation, characterised in that the sulfonic acid or salt thereof represented by the formula (II) is reacted with phosgene in the presence of a catalyst and in the presence or absence of a solvent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 162 words
A process as claimed in Claim 1, wherein said sulfonic acid or salt thereof of the formula (I) is an aromatic sulfonic acid or a salt thereof represented by one of the following formulae (III), (IV) or (V): wherein R 1 and R 2 , which may be the same or different, are each an aromatic fused ring residue represented by a monovalent substituent represented by -S0 3 M, or a monovalent substituent represented by -X, in which X, which may be the same or different, is a monovalent substituent selected from a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a nitro group, and an alkyl group having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms; and M is a hydrogen atom, a mono-, di-or trivalent metal, or an organic amino cation; and a, b, c, m, n and g are each 0 or a positive integer satisfying the relations that a+m=2, b+n=4, and c+p=4, provided that at least one -SO 3 M group is present.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
A process as claimed in Claim 2, wherein the aromatic ring of said aromatic sulfonic acid or salt thereof of the formula (III), (IV), or (V) is a benzene ring or a naphthalene ring.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 56 words
A process as claimed in Claim 1, 2, or 3, wherein in the formulae (I), (III), (IV), and (V), M is a hydrogen atom, a sodium atom, a potassium atom, a magnesium atom, a calcium atom, a barium atom, an aluminum atom, a trimethylammonium group, a triethylammonium group, a pyridinium group, or an N,N-dimethyl- anilinium group.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 34 words
